Get in touch - Go
European! The wide array
of activities comprising Birmingham's celebration of the
Year of Europe is essentially co-ordinated by seven working groups,
each chaired by a specialist in their particular
field. For example, the Arts and Creativity Group are
supporting projects such as Teachers as Interpreters
(story writing), the Snapshots Challenge (images,
poems and songs), and Sounds Like Europe
(music). The other groups have an equally
fascinating repertoire of projects, making it very easy
for your school to get involved. Just contact any
of the group co-ordinators.
A
wealth of initiatives
In addition to the
Birmingham activities there are a range of national and
international initiatives. For example, Speak Out! is an
internet-based project focusing on citizenship.
And the European
Year of Languages Conference, hosted at Birmingham's
International Convention Centre in October, is set to be
a major event.
